1. FUNDAMENTAL ASSESSMENT

The S&P 500 continues to show strong resilience in a complex macroeconomic environment. Despite a high geopolitical risk (RAS at 75/100), the index remains in BULL regime, supported by a moderate VIX at 19.06, a weak DXY at 98.38, and normalized T10Y rates at 4.30%. Geopolitical tensions related to conflicts and political uncertainties, as well as energy risks related to oil price volatility and regional tensions, exert pressure, but are offset by an intact risk appetite.

2. TECHNICAL DYNAMICS

The S&P 500 index shows a positive performance of +1.17% intraday, with a volume at 54% of its monthly average, indicating moderate buying pressure. The performance over the last 5 sessions is +4.1%, confirming a short-term BULLISH momentum. The RSI(14) is at 67.62, indicating a positive dynamic without signaling an immediate overbought condition. The index remains above its moving averages SMA(20) at 6614.90 and SMA(200) at 6666.59, confirming the BULLISH trend. The resistance at 6901.01 has been breached, opening the way for a test of the resistance at 7002.28.

3. SCENARIOS & MACROECONOMIC CATALYSTS

  • BULLISH Scenario (45%): The index continues its progression towards the resistance of 7002.28 points, supported by solid corporate earnings and a de-escalation of geopolitical tensions. Catalysts: Publication of quarterly results above expectations, significant détente in the Middle East.
  • Base Scenario (35%): The index consolidates around current levels, between 6800 and 6900 points, in the absence of major catalysts. Catalysts: Stability of interest rates, absence of new geopolitical escalations.
  • BEARISH Scenario (20%): The index corrects towards the support of 6316.91 points due to an escalation of geopolitical tensions or disappointing macroeconomic data. Catalysts: Sharp rise in the VIX above 30, significant deterioration of economic indicators (inflation, employment).
